b, Great pics! Chapped, I'm not sure what you mean, I've heard a few folks mention fisheye when the eye relief wasn't correct. Is this what you are referring too?
Chapped, I sent a couple of the P-223 3X scopes to some friends who are competitive shooters get their opinion. I'll post their results as they come in.

Gun, glad to hear you were able to take advantage of the free mount Promo.!
